Escape Prevention Solution

£4.99

Escape Prevention Solution 

 

Our clear, anti escape oil is suitable for containing all species of ants and preventing any unwanted escapees during feeding or maintenance sessions. 

 

From nimble Yellow Crazy Ants to teeny tiny Pavement ants, this solution will efficiently stop them in their tracks. 

 

How to apply:

 

Use applicator brush or cotton wool and apply sparingly. 

Create 2-4cm wide barrier at the top of your formicarium. 

 

Re-apply every 3-4 weeks (note: some ant species may deposit substrate on top and re-application may need to be more often in naturalistic setups)

My go to place, large selection of ants and top quality service. My ant empire is slowly growing with the latest edition of Acromyrmex octospinosus which was well packed and the fungus has next to no die off from the shipping.

I recieved my lovely Myrmecia nigriceps queen in haste. Box was well packaged; Temperature was well defended against, and disturbance was well reduced with 2 layers of loose packing peanuts, one outside of the polystyrene box, and one inside...

We bought this for our granddaughter, as she had a pet garden ant that sadly passed way. We got The formiLab (nano) ant nest starter kit. The ant colony is Messor barbarus with one queen and 2/5 workers and there are brood too! Everything you need to get started...

A wonderful company bringing ants to the masses. My son and I attended a workshop with Cesar today. He was wonderfully knowledgeable and handled 8 children so well who were excited about being ant keepers....
